I'm pretty sure that Laxus and Gildarts are wizard saint level mages, but that aside, the extra notes that Mashima wrote and released with one of the tankabons originally planned Laxus to fight Jura on the first day (instead of Jellal) and have them draw, so I'm certain that it will be a good fight if Laxus does fight Jura now (Which I'm sure he will).

Yeah, I did. I actually don't remember that.

It was a half-in-joke post, but seriously now, the Wizard Saints have not been that relevant. When they have, it was because a), they were the main antagonist and ended up defeated (Jose, Jellal), or b), because it was the Fairy Tail master kicking ass and taking names (whenever Natsu was not supposed to save the day).

Fairy Tail trumps Wizard Saints every day, because of plot. For the same reason Natsu will beat everyone, Fairy Tail will beat everyone Natsu doesn't beat.

Granted, there are exceptions to the "protagonists win" rule, and Jura may be one of those, but... I think Laxus will win.

"Because of plot..." Is the same as saying a gun shoots bullets because its loaded.

I mean, the plot is the story. Its Mashima's story. This isn't some recollection of past events. So if Mashima says Natsu trumps everyone with bro-fist attack he will do so and its canon. There are plot elements I dislike in some mangas. IE Kubo (Bleach) finds it necissary to troll everything and take 10 years to explain even the smallest details. But I can't complain about the aspect of this manga that makes FT win all the time. Mashima has established feelings as truly the most powerful form of magic, and FT has no shortage of it.

If I were to complain about anything its how Natsu always manages to get power ups at the exact right time. But then again its a manga rule, especially in shonens, that reality is like an RPG. As you level up so does your opponent. When if you take this realistically Natsu would have run into someone who could have killed him instantly long ago - but they're always not quite enough. :P I would say my point is best illustrated in DBZ with power levels.
